LOS VERBOS REFLEXIVOS
La Primera Vista y los verbos reflexivos
La práctica
La introducción
Reflexive verbs are verbs in which the subject is the
direct recipient of the action of the verb.
There is no object
The action of the verb reflect back on the subject....
The key word in English is -self.
The reflexive verbs are recognized by the use of –SE
attached to the infinitiveLavarse, Bañarse, afeitarse, cepillarse.....

Reflexive pronouns work
with a reflexive verb to indicate that a
person is performing the action toward or
for him- or herself. These types of verbs are
not very common in English, but are used
frequently in Spanish. Many actions related
to personal care or daily routines are
reflexive, but other verbs can be reflexive as
well.



Me ducho cada mañana. (I shower
(myself) every morning.)
Te peinas el pelo. (You brush your hair
(yourself).)
Se hablaba. (He was talking to himself.)

Me veo en el espejo. (I see myself in the
mirror.) verse
The subject is performing the action on
him- or herself, making the object of the
verb, the same as the subject. Compare two
sentences in which one is reflexive and one is
not.


I wash myself. (Me lavo.) - myself is the
object of wash
lavarse
I wash the dog. (Lavo el perro.) - the dog
is the object of wash
lavar
When the object of the verb is the same
person as the subject, you will need to use a
reflexive pronoun that matches the subject
of the verb in both number (singular, plural)
and person (1st, 2nd, 3rd).
Me te se
nos os se

Me lavo. (I wash myself.)

Te lavas. (You wash yourself.)

Se lava.

(He washes himself./She washes
herself./It washes itself./You wash
yourself.)

Nos lavamos (We wash ourselves.)

Os laváis. (You wash yourselves.)

Se lavan. (They wash themselves./You
wash yourselves.)
Reflexive Pronouns
Reflexive pronouns have almost the same
forms as indirect object pronouns except se
is used in place of le and les for the third
person. The reflexive pronoun will always
be the same person (1st, 2nd, 3rd) and
number (singular, plural) as the subject of
the sentence.
Reflexive Pronoun Forms
Singular
1st
me (to, for, from,
person or off myself)
2nd
te (to, for, from,
person or off yourself)
se (to, for, from,
3rd
or off himself,
person
herself, itself,
Plural
nos (to, for, from,
or off ourselves)
os (to, for, from,
or off yourselves)
se (to, for, from,
or off themselves,
yourselves)
yourself)
Reflexive Pronoun Uses
Reflexive verbs will require the use of
reflexive pronouns to indicate that the direct
object of the verb is also the subject, that the
subject is performing the action on him- or
her-self. Notice that the reflexive pronoun
has the same person as the verb ending.



lavarse (to wash one’s self) - Me lavo
las manos. (I wash my hands.)
sacarse (to take something off one’s self)
- Nos sacamos los guantes. (We our
gloves off (ourselves).)
despertarse (to wake up) - Se
despiertan a las seis cada mañana. (They
wake themselves up at six o’clock every
morning.)
As mentioned before, you can also add
reflexive pronouns to verbs not regularly
reflexive verbs in order to make them
reflexive.
Reciprocidad




verse (to see one’s self)
hablarse (to talk to one’s self)
escribirse (to write to one’s self)
comprarse (to buy (something) for
one’s self)
Reflexive verbs can also be used to
indicate an emotional response to
something. When a person becomes
angry, sad, happy, etc., you can express
this by using reflexive verbs.

Me enojé rápidamente. (I got angry
quickly.)


Te alegras de hablar español. (It makes
you happy to speak Spanish.)
Se aburre en la clase de matemáticas.
(He gets bored in Math class.)

Reflexive pronouns are placed
immediately before simple conjugated
verbs and negative commands.

off my gloves.) QUITARSE
afeitarse - Tú te afeitas la cara. (You

acostarse -)o-ue stem change


escribirse - No se escriba notas.
(Don’t write notes to yourself.) command
Reflexive Pronouns are attached to
affirmative commands and in the case of
compound verbs (present progressive,
ir+a+infinitive, etc.) the pronoun can either
be attached to the infinitive or present
participle or go before the conjugated verb.

ducharhse - Estoy duchándome. /
Me estoy duchando. (I am showering
(myself).

quitarse - Quítate el sombrero.

